Ferencvaros visit Notts Forest in their final Europa League game, knowing that three points will secure them a spot in the last sixteen of the competition.
If the Hungarians drop points at the City Ground, their hopes of finishing in the automatic qualification places would hinge on the teams just below also dropping points.
Forest are already guaranteed a playoff place, so have little to play for on Thursday night. As such, Forest boss Sean Dyche may elect to rest some of his key players ahead of some crucial Premier League fixtures.
Both sides had disappointing Europa League results last week, as Forest fell to a 1-0 defeat at Braga that ended their top eight hopes, whilst Ferencvaros missed a great chance to seal a last 16 place, as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Panathinaikos.

Our Nottingham Forest vs Ferencvarosi Budapest Prediction
This is a must win game for Ferencavaros, but their recent results, including a dreadful loss at home to Gyor at the weekend, do little to suggest that are capable of winning at the City Ground.
Forest are also struggling for results, but the 2-0 win at Brentford on Sunday will have given Sean Dyche's men a huge confidence boost, so we expect them to put up another strong performance on Thursday and secure a narrow victory.
Our prediction for Nottingham Forest vs Ferencvaros is: Forest to win and under 2.5 goals.
